KU Sunday Spotlight by KUBR + OCA

Welcome back to the KU Sunday Spotlight, brought to you by KU Book Reviews + the One-Click Addict Support Group. This week, I have FOUR books for you—one steamy hot series—featuring four very delicious brothers… Be sure to add them to your TBR and, as always, enjoy!

When you find out one of your favorite authors has a series that you’ve not yet read and that it’s available in Kindle Unlimited, what do you do? Well, if you’re anything like me, you grab them all and spend a day devouring them, of course.

The author is Jennifer Probst. The series is the Steele Brothers series. And the end result of back-to-back books? One incredibly satisfied {*wink wink*} reader.

I plan to dive into each individual book but, before I do, let me say this: these books were unlike anything I’ve read from Ms. Probst before, especially with the elements of BDSM, and I loved them just as much as I’ve loved all her others.

“Thank you for not giving up on me,” she whispered.“Thank you for letting me catch you.”~ Catch Me

This series of short-but-sexy reads begins with Rick + Tara in Catch Me. The oldest Steele brother is a gentle giant—Thor-like in looks, charm and worthiness. It was an excellent start to the series, hooking me quickly and easily. The way Rick cared for Tara was *sigh* just so lovely and solidified a connection that was, for me, completely on point. It also lay the foundation for this series—outlining the exclusive matchmaking performed by the oddly named FANTA-C and introducing us to knowledge of Rick’s three younger brothers—and, of course, left me eager to read on.

Which I did, immediately heading back to KU and borrowing book two, Play Me. Roman + Sloane have a similar but altogether different dynamic than Rick + Tara. Confused by that? Don’t be—both couples have those aforementioned elements of BDSM, but while Rick was softer in his dominance, here we got to see a Steele man with, well, a steel resolve. The way Rome + Sloane pushed/pulled was engaging and erotic, and the result was a panty-meltingly hot read that left me achy, needy and ready… for more of this series, that is.

Time to make his final bet. The bet of a lifetime.
And this time, he was playing for keeps. ~ Play Me

So, in the midst of a {probably slightly unhealthy} obsession, I pulled up Rafe + Summer’s book, Dare Me, and found a smokin’ role reversal that kind of blew me away. Despite his alpha tendencies—not to mention his military background—Rafe is something his brothers are not; a submissive. And you guys, the visuals here are ridiculously sexy. The juxtaposition of Rafe’s alphaness outside the bedroom with his reluctance to embrace his submissiveness, not to mention Summer’s girl-next-door appeal and need to dominate, made for one hell of an interesting read. A quick, dirty and downright sinful story, as a matter of fact.

“I dare you.”
He sucked in his breath. “Dare me to what?”
“To be honest with what you want.” ~ Dare Me

Of course, by the time I was three books deep—and completely invested—in this five book series {book five, Reveal Me, will be available later this month}, it seemed only right to meet the youngest brother, who also happened to be, IMHO, the most dominant. Remington. Yes, you read that right, Remington Steele. Beg Me is a second chance romance and, of the four, delves the deepest and darkest into the world of BDSM. Rem + Cara have a history that’s electric, erotic, eye-opening… and, yes, even a little heart-breaking.

“Oh, God, no.”
“My name is Sir. If you want to beg for mercy, you do it to me.” ~ Beg Me

Much like knowing I have to wait a little longer for the next book to be released. However, if it, like these first four were, is a perfectly balanced mix of sweet, sexy and sinful, I just know it’s going to Steele my heart. {← Please forgive my misspelling in the interest of punning. It was one or the other, and the pun won. Narrowly.}

As of 09.03.2017, the first four books in the Steele Brothers series are available with Kindle Unlimited. Book five, Reveal Me, is up for pre-order and will be available with Kindle Unlimited upon release on 09.26.2017.

[…] is the latest book in Jennifer Probst’s Steele Brothers series, which I recently binge read {and reviewed!}. And, like the first four, it dives into the hot, sultry, kinky stuff early and barely lets up […]
